#my mom wasnt intentionally hurting me but its good to feel validated

[crunchycrystals]

im not a fic writer but im kind of tempted to write something if only for the sole purpose of representing the ways people have to take care of curly hair bc every pjo fic i read doesnt talk about it

#i read maybe 1 that mentioned that curly hair isnt taken care of the way straight hair is but it never really depicted that #it actually showed her straightening her hair a lot even though that DAMAGES the hair but overall it was a good fic and easy to overlook #maybe shes doing stuff to counteract the damage idk #but like no one talks about the need for silk/ satin things to keep the curls intact #annabeth will just SLEEP on COTTON PILLOWS and it GIVES ME ANXIETY #she straight up sleeps on dirt in tlt it made me njkgsjhdjskds #like DUDE youre gonna have to wash that now #but that one fic that did mention it was something i read before i started taking care of my hair and it made me feel validated bc #it described annabeth's stepmom brushing her hair while it was dry and just it being extremely painful #and like yeah for years my mom forced a brush into my hair to make it “neat” while it was dry and it was torture #and it always looked worse!!!!!! and guess fucking what i was right youre not supposed to brush it dry #my mom wasnt intentionally hurting me but its good to feel validated #crunchyposts #pjo #fics #annabeth #<- unrebloggable for these tags this post is just for me #but like it makes me anxious when they just. dont factor in the fact that annabeth needs things when she sleeps and different shampoos etc
